Need Some Last Minute Modern Christmas Decor Ideas?
Procrastinated a bit? No worries! That is why online shopping exists. š Today I’m sharing 5 Modern Holiday Decor Ideas PLUS a design I created for a wonderful past client of mine. I worked with her on several rooms of her house, and recently she reached out needing some modern touches to add to their existing holiday decor. So if you need some last minute finishing touches…read on!
Modern Christmas Decor Idea #1: Use Bottle Brush Trees
It is a great way to add color and whimsy to your mantle or tabletop for Christmas decor. Plus if you have kiddos-these aren’t breakables, always a win!
Modern Christmas Decor Idea #2: Use traditional elements…in a different way
I loved these modern glass Christmas trees from CB2. You can use a traditional element-a Christmas tree, but use a modern twist with this gold, silver, opaque, and clear trees. You can mix and match the colors and sizes with theseĀ CB2 Paz Glass Trees
Modern Christmas Decor Idea #3: Try a Different Wreath
A wreath is the easiest way to add Christmas charm to a door. In my house I have wreaths on my front doors, but I also hang them from my windows and slider doors as well. You can go traditional with an evergreen one (and even “modern it up” with a cute bow) OR go out-of-the-box with a wreath like thisĀ white feather wreath
Modern Christmas Decor Idea #4: Embrace Your Inner Cheerleader
…and use pompoms! These funky fun pom pom garlands can work strung from a mantle, on a Christmas tree, or even draped over a doorway. Go with the traditional green and red combo, or go with something totally different. I found ones I like at Crate and Barrel, Etsy andĀ Target
Use it alone or pair it up with other garlands like Jenny at “Paint Yourself a Smile” blog did:
Modern Christmas Decor Idea #5: Jazz Up your Tree Skirt
Whether it is a tree skirt or collar, add some jazz to your tree with something a little different. I love this one fromĀ Anthropologie-it comes in modern gray, or a more classic green. Or check out the hammered gold Crate and Barrel one I used below.

And here is a Mood Board I came up for one of my clients. She is a Mama of two boys. The boys want crazy Christmas everywhere…and she wants something a bit more modern and streamlined. So I helped her find some new elements that will mix in with items she already has…and hopefully a happy compromise!
But most importantly…Christmas isn’t about the decorations or the cookies. I hope you have a beautiful holiday with family and friends, remembering the true reason why we celebrate Christmas!
Merry Christmas and enjoy the last few days of 2019 my friends,
Kristin
